I would probably be a good lawyer but I never would like to. Lawyers are creeps.

I've been told I'd make a good lawyer

I wouldn't want to be a lawyer though, unless I could choose only the genuine cases, and fight for those.


It's true that lawyers generally have a bad reputation
(I think because they earn loads of money and because they are employed to 'fight' for somebody in court, ie. they are thus 'fighting' against someone else in a room mixed with truth and lies ... the swines! ... haha ... er ...)

:wink:

I could probably be a lawyer as I like to read, I can be very logical, and legal issues are a matter of slight interest but I don't think I should because of the time and money it takes to get a law degree and the fact that there are a lot of lawyers out there as well.

What's the difference between a Lawyer and a catfish??

One is a scum sucking bottom feeder and the other is just a fish.

My Dad liked to tease lawyers. When he did jury duty once there were lawyers in the elevator. He said real loud something like "Damn, it was so cold this morning all the lawyers had their hands in their OWN pockets."

Why won't a rattlesnake bite a lawyer?

It's considered a professional courtesy not to.



The problem with concrete thinkers becoming lawyers, is that while judges make their living in black and white, lawyers often make their living in the gray areas between the laws. I can see how that could spell trouble for aspies who are too literal in their thinking.
I've been told I'd be a good lawyer, but I doubt it.




Some of the best lawyer jokes are dead baby jokes where you substitute roadkill lawyers for the dead babies. There are many sites devoted to dead baby jokes.

For instance: Why did it take so long for the roadkill lawyer to cross the road? Because the dogs were still fighting over it.

I once had a lawyer who was a very nice person. But not a very good lawyer. I lost my case.

Nice people don't win, lawyers or not. Scumbags win.

Why do Lawyers wear neckties??

So their foreskin does'nt roll up over their head.
